Signature Dishes

  • Sliced roast duck

    Thin, crisp skin with fragrant, non-greasy richness and juicy meat; it can also come across as fairly ordinary, while pancakes, scallions, and sauce make the bite more complete.

  • Brown-sugar ginger tofu pudding

    Fine, silky tofu pudding with warm brown-sugar ginger syrup and peanuts, making for a gentle, mellow finish.

  • Crispy roast pork

    The skin can be crisp and the meat savory, tender, or meltingly soft; on one occasion it was a little dry and less crisp than expected.

  • Black-sesame pastry

    Crisp exterior, generous black-sesame filling, with a texture reminiscent of sesame tangyuan.
